Difficult to read but important. For those unaware, the IUCN Red List was updated, and 61% of birds species are noted to now be in decline. Habitat loss and degradation are the most prevalent cause.

Oh I also became a cat mom this past year. Milo was a kitten we took from a litter that was living under our porch! He’s nice and spoiled now :)

Anyone here good with hydrangeas? I’m unsure if mine got hit with a fungus or something… we did have bark beetles unfortunately this summer.

I checked some stems and they are alive! I just don’t know whats wrong and what to do for next spring :( Location is northern VA!

One of my fav things I got this year was a hummingbird feeder bird buddy! Unfortunately, the humbums have left my area for warmer climates but here’s a video of a lovely male RTHU who came to visit a bit ago :)

Oh man! Hi everyone, it’s been a while!

A lot has happened over the last year and I needed to step away for a bit. I wasn’t feeling inspired and truthfully, I went through some really difficult times.

But I am back! And hopefully with more birds :)

Here’s an American Redstart for tax!

Went out to Assateague State Park last week for vegetation surveys out in the marsh, and boy was there a TON of needlerush. Definitely got poked one too many times.
